This is arranged by an easy 3 step process:

  1. Fill out a simple no obligation ‘quick application’ with a Lakeland customer service representative. This is submitted to National Leasing for credit approval.
  2. Once approved, National Leasing will send you documents to sign which will include a payment schedule.
